Sometimes, those who have the right connections or control over the systems can manipulate things to where it's impossible to break out and make change. Thanks for sharing.

Lea, I have been reading your book with a mixture of horror (for the abuse and the family/community that failed you) and admiration for your courage to survive and tell your story. God bless your efforts. Keep writing.

I'm so glad my daughters married gentle men and really only ever knew non violent men, and the same for my daughter, last week four women were murdered by their partners, I must admit I don't understand why they are violent, and why they don't consider the consequences, it affects a broad church, well done, Lea,blessings Roy

The help that should have been there for you and your sister was corrupted by your family, and each day was a fight to survive, and you did, and now you've given her the voice. You should be proud of that Lea.

    Thank you so much! I am proud of some of the things that I have done to make it through. Get myself better educated Uber the years and get a nice career going. And the two sons are successful and doing well in their lives. Thank you, my great friend. I appreciate all your lovely comments and that you understand so very well. Thanks again!

What a tragic circle you were caught in. Again, adults don't want to involve themselves if it means a threat to their comfort, their jobs, or their reputations. What about doing what is right? What about living those Christian teachings that are taught at church instead of just being there to be seen? That you survived is a miracle.

    My grandmother was also very involved with the church. I think I mentioned so. But I chose the way the only way that I saw there was. That was too lame as quickly as I could. Thank you again for reading and writing I appreciate you very much!

In a previous chapter I mentioned I realized why you could not go to the police. You would end up at your grandmother's house and then back to your parents. It had already happened before. You were caught in a vicious cycle like a bug trapped in a spider's web. However, in time, with planning, and God's help, I hope you will break free.

    Thank you. Yes, I knew that most people too totally got it. Some people are asking me why so I thought I put out a explanation in a shorter version of it. It seemed to help some people as they do sometimes come in the middle. I thank you very much for your kindness. I thank you very much for your review and your great comments are always valuable to me questions. I welcome edit so I welcome anything constructive. Anyone wants to say I am completely open and I thank you for your kind comments and all your insight has been a great gift to me. Thank you again my friend!

Well it is understandable but frightening that such a circle of lies and self-deceit existed. A shame you couldn't appeal to someone independent who could cut through the bullshit. It's like all these circles of abuse for people like Weinstein and Jimmy Saville in the UK. Everyone knew but no one could speak out. So sad. X

You sure picked an appropriate title for this. To have things keep repeating over and over, and to have your mother more content to keep things the way they were, even telling an entirely different version of it to your face, is the height of self-deception.

No matter how old I ever become, I will NEVER forget the night of our first phone conversation when we discussed this topic. This entire family is so unbelievably sick and twisted, it just boggles the mind that they hold such high power positions. They are just MASTERS of the game, are they not? Thank goodness for you and your COURAGE and BRAVERY and MEMORY...because, at long last, it is time for them to answer for what they did.

Because you remain so cogent and precise, there's never a moment that we, your readers, don't feel your outrage and want justice for you still, all these years later.

Well done, Lea. Keep yourself fueled. You're doing great work every single day. xoxox

Hello Lea,
What you've endured in your life, no one should have to endure, especially not a child. How very distressing to believe that there was no way to escape, that everywhere you turned was a dead end that lead to even more abuse. Not only did your family let you down, society let you down. Your story needs to be put in front of the governing bodies of your province so they get a first hand look at how the system can be abused, and a set of checks and balances can be implemented so that never again shall a child be treated as you and your sister were. You're a brave woman gal, and I applaud you for speaking out. Thanks for sharing this, even though it's painful.
Have a blessed evening.
Tom

    Tom once again you hit the nail on the head! I wish for it to be published. I wish for a copy of it to go to social services I will try a few avenues to get that word out there. Definitely what I must proceed with Is caution of course and follow the legal steps required to get the job fine. At every time, your words are empowering to me. And I thank you for that wonderful gift!
